Selena Gomez blames junk food for hospital stay

Justin Bieber's girlfriend Selena Gomez is feeling better after going to the hospital last week for exhaustion. Now she's got a message The Juice* hopes she tells all her fans loud and clear: Instead of starving herself to death, like we feared, she blames eating junk food for the problem.

"I do eat. The problem is I don’t eat right. I love everything that’s possibly not good for me," she said onKidd Kraddick's Dallas-area radio show Thursday, according to People. But thank goodness her mom is around now to take care of her. "She’s definitely shoving vitamins down my mouth and following me around. But at the same time, I was a stubborn kid, so I got to eat whatever I wanted. I have to have creamed spinach or cheese on my broccoli. I have to have something that makes it not healthy."

The 18-year-old says her favorites were candy, like " M&Ms, Kit Kats, Snickers and Goobers." But given she says eating that stuff made her sick, she can probably kiss that endorsement deal goodbye.
